Zoë d'Hont

textiel, performance, keramiek, installatie, Geluid

With an interdisciplinary approach, Zoë d'Hont investigates how people experience space and place, how they move through it and how they relate to it. By re-interpreting and re-situating existing compositions, notations and architectures, she emphasizes the importance of observation, ritual and paying attention, aiming to give meaning to the world that surrounds us. The visual and auditory material she works with, derives from an interest in cosmology, nature and composition itself.
